[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 100480, member: 3353"] No Stands, he did not mean to be caught. The temptation was not the other person involved ~ it was the addiction. Stands, you cannot protect or even, assist a child who will not listen to what you tell him. Our sons are caught in something we don't understand. To me, it seems that the most important thing is for us to keep ourselves intact and our families together. It is hard. What we are all living through is painful. But if you read Suz' post about gratitude, and about refusing to give in to the feelings (always so hard for me!), then you will have a goal, a feeling state to work toward. So many times, I know I am not where I need to be with everything. Suz is right, about listing the things we all still have to celebrate and to feel so blessed and fortunate to have. That is the one thing I have found that will counteract those feelings of hopelessness and worry. I don't know why I forget to use those techniques. Barbara [/QUOTE]
